There was large attendance on the board
but buyers were ayerse to paying any aduance
for cash wheat Sellers were holding for
higher prices to correspond with the rise in
speculative points, but with the exception of
No. Northern, for which there was fair
demand, prices were scarcely any better than
OH Saturday. Receipts for the two days were
966 cars here and 407 at Duluth. Flour
shipments were only $4,000 bbls, almost
10000 bblS less than last Monday. Local
stocks increased 712. 413 bu last week. Fol

sition of this market is seldom so satisfactory
at this season of the year as now, due, not
only to the great rise i'll wheat, but as well to
the wonderful absorption of the product, both
in this country and abroad. There have been
recent advances in freight rates to many
points and as the bulk of flour is sold for de-
livery at the buying points our millers are
asking, on such deliveries, the additional cost
of freight. That makes 1t appear to buyers
that the advance here is more than has actu.
ally been gained. There has not been much
of rise in flour here consequent upon the
advance in wheat. 1t is not believed that
there will be any significant rise in wheat
this week, as according to the natural run
there ought to be small reaction. But when
the wheat market again takes the upward
path there should be corresponding rise in
flour. Patents, sacks to local dealers, 81. LOO

Bran and Shorts-The market here holds a
fairly even course, fluctuating but slightly to
accommodate itself to the varying moods of
other points There is large amount of
stuff sold for forward delivery, and spot sales
are filled by breaking in upon the delivery of
those lots sold ahead. Bran, S10.50@11. 25 !;
shorts, S11. 25@12.5O.
Corn-There was moderate request for a
few cars, which was filed at 4O04Ic for
samples.
Oats-The receipts have lately been quite
large checking an upward tendency: sales
at 24@26I2c, the latter price for very choice
white only.
Barley-When choice was in good demand
55@63c with fair to good bright stock SELL
ing slowly at 40@50c.
Feed-Sales at S15@15.5O o. t. !; S15.5O@16

Hay-Has been arriving in too large GUAM
titles to be readily absorbed by the trade, and
poor. or even fair. stock was hard TO sell.
